Day 6 & 7 Monday 7th & Tuesday 8th July 2008
Travel Marla – Yulara (Ayers Rock) 733km – 8hrs
On the road from Marla to Ayers Rock it’s a windy and overcast day. Charles is still on Simon’s bike and has taken to the bike like duck to water and wants to buy the bike from Simon when they return. Simon is feeing a bit better today so he drives the truck and finally rides into Ayres Rock. On route they have an encounter with an Emu. Gary takes some funny pictures at Kulgera motor station. Kulgera a small bush town surrounded by thousands of kilometers of cattle station, situated just 21 km from the South Australian - Northern Territory border.
There is a bit of tension in the group due to people not staying together within radio range.
Gary’s radio is still broken, even is his radio was working he probably wouldn't listen as he has his Ipod on. Gary is the consulate diplomat as normal….Most probably Gary doesn’t need a radio at all hahah!
They arrive at the Rock at 5pm and decide to slum it and stay at Sales In The Desert. The group take photos of the sunset, all have a very relaxing dinner.
Simon joined the boys for dinner but is not allowed any carbohydrates al all.
Today is a rest day people can’t walk on the rock as it’s to windy so they are relaxing around the rock preparing for the drive to Kings Canyon. Hopefully Les Twentyman will arrive on Friday for a fund raiser.
The boys look forward to receiving any comments form any of those people out there reading there blog
Its amazing with all the dominant personalities everyone still loves each other!
Fun times to come in the desert
Watch out more to come
